I have just seen this:

From the looks of it, it seems to have some overlap in functionality
with the Data Manager in Seamonkey. I know KaiRo offered the Data
Manager to Firefox, and since it's in trunk, I guess the Permissions
Manager will eventually find its way to Seamonkey.
Is there any work being done to address the duplicated functionality?
Permission Manager will very probably not find its way into SeaMonkey,
as it just implements a small subset of what Data Manager does anyhow.
Permission Manager is doing the list by host and not summing up by
domain, which increases the right-hand list substantially in some cases.
OTOH, it looks a bit nicer and less complicated, the former can probably
be changed if someone with visual design skills ever helps out
SeaMonkey, the latter (probably) can't be changed, as actually showing
and managing data instead of just the permissions really ends up being
complicated - but also more powerful.
Data Manager is a tool for the advanced user, not necessarily for the
big masses, which is why it's built into SeaMonkey, which targets the
former and only available as an add-on for Firefox, which mainly targets
the latter.
